This time, Su Chang'an almost went out of the nest, he left 20,000 soldiers and horses to be led by Guo Que, who was seriously injured and had just recovered, to guard Jiangdong, and the rest of the people almost all went to Shu.
Mu Liangshan was the commander of the barbarian battalion, and there were seven battalions, which were respectively in charge of Chu Jiangnan, Gu Houming, Bi Loucheng, Feng Tianying, Luo Guoning, Shen Shulin, and Meng Changguan, seven young generals who were raised by Su Changan.
Hongyu commanded the 100,000 Jiangdong troops earlier, which used to be the private armies of the seven major families, and after Hongyu took over, he reorganized the formation and called the trapped camp.
Su Changan commanded the 30,000 horses of the Xiliang Army, and there were three commanders, Wen Ziyu, Gu Yalang, and Miao Yongshan, each in charge of 10,000 people.
In addition, there are also Gu Xianjun, Mu Guiyun, Sima Changxue, Hou Ruyi, Yin Qianyan, Luo Yuer, and Hua Fei, who have already asked the power of the Dao Realm and the Soul Guarding Realm of various clans, a total of seventy-nine people.
Of course, there are also Xiahou Ming and Taibai Daoren, who are extremely reluctant, but have to follow.
Jiangdong borders Western Shu, and it is naturally simple to go there, but if you go directly to Jiangdong like that, you need to unite with the Shu army and soldiers to confront Tuoba Yuanwu head-on.
There are many problems.
First of all, if the two armies fight separately, it is inevitable that there will be some mistakes. Tuoba Yuanwu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so it is very easy for him to catch the flaws, and the barbarian army is already powerful, so it is naturally invincible. But if the two armies are merged, where will this command be handed over? Another question is another question, given to Western Shu, Su Changan is not at ease, given to Su Changan, I am afraid that Shu will not be happy.
So in the end, Su Changan and others decided to cross the river, pass through the Hutou Pass, which is still in Sima Xu's hands, and attack the barbarian army from the flank.
Of course, the word sneak attack is not really appropriate.
After all, it is a long way to go to the mountains, and it may take five or six days to march in time, and these naturally cannot hide the ears and eyes of the dragon falcons and night crows of the barbarian army. And there are also the defenders arranged by Sima Xu along the way, but in the previous wars, the military strength of the Great Wei has long been gone, as long as it is not Sima Xu himself, it should be fine.
Therefore, the whereabouts of Su Changan and the others naturally cannot be concealed from Tuoba Yuanwu's ears and eyes.
But it doesn't matter.
They attacked from the flank, Tuoba Yuanwu will definitely transfer troops to resist, but the force is distributed, the pressure on Shu is naturally reduced a lot, and it can also form a flank attack with the Shu army, forming a horn trend with each other, stretching the battle line of Tuoba Yuanwu, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
It's just that Su Changan didn't come up with such a trick, and his ability is naturally no longer on this march and battle, these are the results of the discussion of Mu Liangshan and others, and Su Changan, who can't think of any good way, is naturally as good as a stream, and follows this plan.
The army crossed the Li River at this moment and marched all the way west.
The world shook, and everyone rumored that the king of Chu, Su Chang'an, Jiangdong Mobing had been in the army for a long time, and the hole cards in his hand at this moment were finally revealed in front of the world.
......
South of Chang'an and north of the Li River.
The majestic top of Tianmen Mountain.
In that quaint and mysterious attic.
A man stood in the starry sky, and in front of him, three figures were half-kneeling.
The leader is a woman, dressed in green clothes, her eyes are as cold as frost, like snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, and there are springs in the ground, dust-free.
Behind her were two men, one dressed in white, with handsome eyebrows and a flute hanging from his waist. The other man didn't look unusual, but the guqin on his back was extremely eye-catching.
"The three-way battle, the dragon out of Jiangdong. The man who was standing said faintly.
His voice was extremely ordinary, not half out of the ordinary, but with a strange rhythm, faintly affecting some laws of heaven and earth.
"Did Your Excellency call me to wait because another star is about to die?" asked the woman in Tsing Yi, her tone was so cold that it was impossible to hear the fluctuations in her heart.
"On the day of the dragon's rise, naturally the lives will not be destroyed in seconds, and even if the stars die, they will not escape death. The man whispered, his brow furrowed.
"But you are not here to die for the return of the stars. The man said again.
"Huh?" the man's words made the three of them stunned, and they all looked at the man in confusion.
The expression on the man's face became extremely cold at that time, and the starlight around him also became cold at that time, reflecting his side face, and a strange aura began to permeate.
"I want you to stop that star from coming up, I want you to kill him!"
"He?" the woman in green clothes was stunned. "Which one?"
She asked, extremely uncertain.
"What do you say?" the man's eyes narrowed.
The woman in Tsing Yi paused, she looked back at the two people behind her who were still kneeling with their heads bowed, and said, "Your Excellency asked them to go with me?"
"You are the most outstanding disciple of my Star Pavilion for hundreds of years, and you are also my future successor, how can I not worry about you?" the man smiled. "It's just that this matter is very important, and there is no room for mistakes, and sending Changqin and Mu Di with them is just to make sure that you don't have to think too much about it. β
The woman in Tsing Yi frowned, she glanced at the man meaningfully, but in the end she didn't say anything more, she nodded, and said, "Disciple takes orders!"
Immediately got up, and the two men behind him also stood up at that time.
Then a blue light flashed, and the figures of the three disappeared into the attic.
The man turned his head to look at the stars that surrounded him, and the smile on his lips grew cold.
......
White Horse Town used to be a necessary place for the Central Plains to go to Shu, so for a long time, White Horse Town was often crowded with people and was very lively.
But with the start of the war between the imperial court and Shudi, the prosperity of White Horse Town has long since disappeared with the wind.
A few days ago, Zuo Yucheng was defeated, and this White Horse Town fell into the hands of Tuoba Yuanwu, and those days were more and more miserable.
How could the barbarian army ever have the idea of treating the people as human beings, and the soldiers under their command took people's lives at every turn.
But the barbarian army that Zuo Yucheng can't defeat, what can the ordinary people of White Horse Town do?
The clever ones fled early, and the rest could only be bullied by the barbarians.
But fortunately, Tuoba Yuanwu was busy moving westward and wanted to take Shu, and there were only some barbarians left in this White Horse Town, and the number was not large, although it was inevitable to be squeezed, but it was better than the gathering of thousands of barbarians in the past, just looking at it, it made these ordinary people frightened.
this day.
A man and a woman, an old man and a young man, two travelers came to Whitehorse.
They were in the dust, as if they had come from afar.
"Hey, surnamed Lu, you said that you want to practice to recover your strength, and I will accompany you to recover your strength, and now you are going to come to Shu again, what do you say is going on with the two of us The opponents of the barbarian army, aren't you asking for your own death?
One of the two of them, a young girl dressed in green clothes and carrying a long knife almost the size of her own, muttered discontentedly to the man next to her, who looked old.
Her voice was loud, and she had no consciousness of being under the rule of the barbarians.
The current situation in Whitehorse Town, the residents inside are trying to escape, how can anyone run here stupidly?
Therefore, when these two people appeared, the people of White Horse Town fixed their eyes on the two of them almost at the same time.
But the little girl who looked extremely cute, when she opened her mouth to speak, immediately frightened these ordinary people to hurriedly put aside their eyes, for fear that if they looked at it more, they would have something to do with it and offend the barbarian army defending the city.
However, the face of the man who was traveling with the girl did not show any dissatisfaction with the girl's extremely unkind remarks.
He just glanced at the girl and said lightly: "I caught the breath of the Star Picking Tower, as you said, the Star Picking Tower is the master behind the scenes of the barbarians, capture the thief first capture the king, kill them, and then cut off the back road of the barbarians." β
When the girl heard this, she didn't agree with the man's words at all, she pursed her lips and muttered: "What do you say about cutting off the back road of the barbarian, I think you just want to find Lu Lichen for revenge." β
The girl's words seemed to speak to the man's heart, and he was slightly silent, but in the end he did not say anything to contradict the girl.
"The revenge of killing his wife is not shared, and he can't forget it. β
As he said this, the expression on his face became a little gloomy because of this. "But I still know which is more important. β
"Hmph!" the girl could see the unhappiness in the man's heart at this moment, but she still couldn't let go of some of the man's previous behaviors, so she turned her head and let out a cold snort.
And although the ordinary people around them no longer looked at them, their words did not shy away from them, and almost without exception they reached everyone's ears.
They only felt that their scalps were numb, and secretly wondered what the hell was the origin of these two, and they actually looked like they wanted to be enemies of the barbarians - at this time, in the eyes of most ordinary people, the barbarian army was almost invincible, so the words of these two people fell on their ears, which was naturally no different from looking for death.
And sure enough, the two of them finally attracted the attention of the barbarians stationed there, and soon the sound of the clash of armor sounded, and a barbarian dressed as an officer led a hundred barbarians who were tall and fierce and abnormally tall and came over, and surrounded the two.
"Who are you waiting for, report your name!"
The officer's face had a scar that ran through the entire side of his face, looking extremely vicious, and asking a question at this moment made those ordinary people who secretly paid attention to the situation here a chill, and secretly said that this old and young man may be more than lucky.
The two of them were unaware of the barbarian officer's rebuke, and they continued on their own as if they had not seen their presence.
"The surname is Lu, I want to eat roast chicken, let's go to the front to see if there is one. β
"Well, I'm a little hungry too. β
The two of them were still chatting about family life as if no one was around.
Such a reaction naturally greatly angered these barbarian troops, who were already accustomed to being in this place, and the officer's face turned red, as if he was furious with blood.
"Above, the old one is killed! the little oneβ" the officer's face flashed with a [lewd] gleam at that time, "the little one is tied up for me, and it overwhelms my account, and the general will be forced to ask for it." β
Such explicit remarks naturally caused some laughter from the barbarians around him.
And the people around him were even more indignant.
These days, this barbarian has done a lot of such things, and none of the women they have taken have come out alive.
The barbarians are already tall and mighty, different from the human race, just imagine how many ordinary women can withstand their torture?
And the girl was born so cute, then her result can be imagined.
But anger is anger, and none of these people dares to really stand up at this moment, and the little courage they have in their hearts has long since been exhausted in these months of submission.
When the girl heard this, she finally stopped.
Her small Joan's nose moved, as if she had smelled something extremely unpleasant, and her brow furrowed at that moment.
"The taste of the Protoss. As she spoke, a cold wind rose out of nowhere, blowing dust all over the ground.
The barbarians felt a chill inexplicably at that time.
"Hmm. The man also nodded at that time and said, "It seems that this Tuoba Yuanwu army has been planted with divine blood by those gods in the Star Picking Tower, so it's no wonder that Zuo Yucheng will be deflated by their hands." β
The effect of divine blood can not only improve people's cultivation, but also enhance the vitality of these soldiers to a large extent, as long as there is still a breath, they can recover in a short time, which is almost the reason why Tuoba Yuanwu people are invincible all the way.
"Didn't you say that Tuoba Yuanwu colluded with Xingxinglou, and why did he get involved with the Protoss again?" the girl asked, tilting her head, without the slightest sense of danger on her face.
"The Star Picking Tower is extremely complex, and it can be said that it is the spokesperson of heaven and man in the world. Among them, there are some demigods and sub-gods who turned their backs on the true gods, so it is not surprising. The man replied lightly.
"Oh. The girl nodded knowingly.
At this time, those barbarian troops finally couldn't hold back and began to surround and kill the two.
"Would you like to leave a living mouth and ask about the situation?" asked the girl again.
At this time, the barbarian army was approaching, and they raised their blades with their teeth and claws, like extremely vicious wolves pounced on their long-coveted fat.
"No, I don't. How can these people know about the Star Picking Tower. The man shook his head again.
As soon as these words came out, the death sentence was almost pronounced on those barbarian soldiers.
It was in that moment.
Murder welled up in the girl's eyes.
The black sword-like ornament she hung around her neck suddenly burst out with a brilliant light, and the feet of those barbarians suddenly lit up with dazzling white light.
That's a holy lotus!
A lotus flower made of sword shadows!
This is...
Three thousand lotus flowers!
It's too late to exclaim, and it's too late to dodge.
It was only a flash of effort, and the barbarian soldiers who were still murderous just now all turned into flying flesh and blood, scattered all over the ground.
A strong smell of blood spread at that time.
The people of White Horse Town, who were watching, were even more shocked by such a change, and they were speechless for a while, only staring at the flesh and blood all over the ground in a daze.
"Flee quickly, and when the new barbarian army arrives, I am afraid that I will not let you go. β
The man glanced at the people around him and said slowly.
"That's right. As if remembering something, he took out a bag of silver from his bosom and walked to an old couple who were still stunned at the door, and put the money bag into his hand.
Then he went to the courtyard on his own and brought up the rooster that had been a little thin.
"How about this one?" he looked at the girl beside him.
"Well, it's a little thinner, but it's not bad. The girl examined the in the man's hand, and a smile cracked into the corners of her mouth.
